Autoflow aka. postive drain tee

ABSTRACT

The Autoflow aka positive drain tee is a drainage system for two basin sinks. It allows reduced clogging from having a valve in the fitting to open or close the drain from one of the sinks to allow more room for a larger volume of water to force debris through the fitting and down the drain.
